Although I no longer seem to have the patience to watch them, I'm sure there are scripted TV shows at a high artistic level.

At the risk of sounding absurd, one thing I do think is better on my Kindle Keyboard 3G is the weather from http://cell.weather.gov/. My prejudice against television news was reinforced this morning when reading Nate Silver's plausible claims (via the Kindle New York Times Latest News Blog) that video weatherfolk have a "wet bias" and are unwilling to honestly report 50 percent chances for fear of being wishy-washy.
